Not Just for Protection

A member of the Iranian judiciary, proving that in substance and intelligence he is not much different than some of his U.S counterparts, today said that Barbie dolls were a destructive cultural source and importation was dangerous.

Twelve years prior to this justice's leap from reality, “the head of a government-backed children's agency called Barbie a “Trojan horse” sneaking in Western influences such as makeup and revealing clothes.”

It's been rumored that President Bush, upon hearing of this official's condemnation of Barbie and his analogy to the equine which assisted in the fall of Troy, became very excited and urged the Joint Chiefs to start looking for little soldiers which could be packed into the orifices of Barbie dolls and sent to Iran as an invasion force. One source remembers Bush, with all due seriousness, stating, What self-respecting man didn't wish to be inside Barbie.”

It is also rumored that conservatives who were amongst the most vocal supporters of the Iraq debacle, but who themselves never served, were enlisting in droves.
